To aZZ whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, GEORGE C. MCMURTRY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Los Angeles, in the county of Los Angeles and State of California, have invent d a new and' useful Antisieitic Cone, of whic the followbrought out in the following description.

septies.

invention, and referring thereto, Figure 1 is a side elevation of the vaginal cone. Fig. 2 is a cross section on line XZ-X2 Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a sectional view similar to Fig. 2, bu illustrates the rectal cone. Fig. 4 1s a perspective of the'cord and retaining disks removed from the cone.

. The vaginal cone shown in Figs. 1 and 2 comprises a pear shaped body 1, circular in. cross section, having an enlargement 2 at its upper end and a smaller enlargement 3 at lts lower end, the body being homogeneous and composed of a soluble compound of ichthyol, boracic acid, and other efiicacious anti- A cord 4 extends axially into the center of the body 1 and is provided at 4its upper end with a forated disk 6 below the lmot 5, which dis is located concentrically in the body and serves to anchor the cord in the .body of the cone. The cord is filled with beeswax to render it water proof to prevent the cord acting as a wick to draw any liquid or excretions up into the `center of the cone and cause the cone to soften at the center around the anchor. Thus the center of the cone cannot soften and loosen from its firm anchorage. This form of cone is made to fit the vagina and when it is inserted it opens all the folds of the vagina so that when drawn out it brings out the 'poisonous and unclean excretions and leaves a soothing, cleansing antiseptic'coating in the 'vagina which destroys all germs and restores the arts to 'a healthy condition. The cone is rea ily withdrawn by means of the cord, when desired, thereby ermitting e accompanying drawings illustrate the knot, there being a er l.mass of medicinal ble, .will in'time reduce in size as from reeated use, but the cord at all times is firmly iield in position as'the center not soften.

The rectal conel shown in Fig. 3 is' shaped to fit the rectum and may be composed of the same substance as the vaginal cone. This cone 1s also circular in cross section but has its upper end tapering as shown at 11, and preferably pointed as shown at 12, for permitting it to,be morereadily inserted. The lower end is larger than the upper end as shown at 13, and preferably terminates abruptly to permit of its being retained more easily after being inserted. In this form the cord 4 is shown as being provided with knots 7 and 8, there being a perforated disk 9 below the knot 8, which disks serve as anchors for the v cord, giving the cone a iirmer constructionand also serving as a double anchorage for the cord. The upper end of the cord extends above the disk 9 as shown at 14 which adds, rigidity of the cone does to the tapering end ofthe cone, and especially when the same becomes reduced in size from repeated' use. Butv in each form of cone o ne of the disks is located near the upper end so that in withdrawing the cone there-will be no danger ofthe cord being pulled out of the mass and thusv leaving the cone'inside. The rectal cone when 4inserted acts both as adilator and medicator being doubly efhcacio'us as dilation is as well recognized as medication to be a most efficient remedial treatment for constipation and other rectal diseases or disorders. 1
